以下、本発明の実施形態を図面に基づいて説明する。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
図１〜図３は、本発明の実施形態の車両用充電装置１（全体の詳細は図示省略）を示し、この車両用充電装置１は、例えば車両（全体は図示省略）側方のボディパネル２（図１にのみ示す）に搭載され、車両の充電池（図示せず）に接続された充電コネクタ３を備えている。充電コネクタ３は、図示しない充電ステーションなどの差込プラグが挿入されて充電池に充電を開始できるようになっている。なお、充電コネクタ３が設けられる位置は、車体のどの部分でもよい。 1 to 3 show a vehicle charging device 1 (the details of which are not shown in the drawings) according to an embodiment of the present invention. The vehicle charging device 1 is, for example, a body panel on the side of a vehicle (the whole is not shown). 2 (shown only in FIG. 1) and has a charging connector 3 connected to a rechargeable battery (not shown) of the vehicle. The charging connector 3 has an insertion plug such as a charging station (not shown) inserted therein so that charging of the rechargeable battery can be started. The position where the charging connector 3 is provided may be any part of the vehicle body.
この充電コネクタ３は、コネクタ収容部１０の略円形のコネクタ用開口１０ａ内に収容されている。充電コネクタ３は、図２のように１種類の充電コネクタ３のみが設けられていてもよいし、特許文献１のように２種類の充電コネクタ３が並べて設けられていてもよい。 The charging connector 3 is housed in the connector housing 10 in a substantially circular connector opening 10a. The charging connector 3 may be provided with only one type of charging connector 3 as shown in FIG. 2, or may be provided with two types of charging connector 3 side by side as in Patent Document 1.
コネクタ収容部１０のコネクタ用開口１０ａから所定距離だけ離れた位置には、電装品４が設けられている。この電装品４は、例えば、図１及び図４に拡大して示すように、押圧式のスイッチ４ａが設けられた基板４ｄを内蔵しており、例えば、ポリプロピレン樹脂成形品のアッパーハウジング４ｃとロアハウジング４ｅとで覆われている。上記ロアハウジング４ｅには、上記コネクタ収容部１０の裏面側に取り付けるための取付孔４ｇが形成されている。また、コネクタ収容部１０におけるスイッチ４ａに対応する部分には、例えば、円形のスイッチ用開口部１０ｂが形成されている。 An electrical component 4 is provided at a position apart from the connector opening 10a of the connector housing portion 10 by a predetermined distance. The electrical component 4 includes, for example, as shown in an enlarged view in FIGS. 1 and 4, a substrate 4d provided with a push-type switch 4a, and includes, for example, an upper housing 4c and a lower portion of a polypropylene resin molded product. It is covered with the housing 4e. The lower housing 4e is formed with a mounting hole 4g for mounting on the rear surface side of the connector accommodating portion 10. A circular switch opening 10b, for example, is formed in a portion of the connector housing 10 corresponding to the switch 4a.
図２に示すように、スイッチ４ａは、例えば、充電コネクタ３を介する充電のオンオフスイッチである。 As shown in FIG. 2, the switch 4 a is, for example, an on / off switch for charging via the charging connector 3.
電装品４は、さらにＬＥＤライト４ｂも備えている。例えばこのＬＥＤライト４ｂは、コネクタ収容部１０に設けた略矩形状のＬＥＤ用開口部１０ｃから露出し、充電コネクタ３及びその周辺を照らすように構成されている。 The electrical component 4 further includes an LED light 4b. For example, the LED light 4b is configured to be exposed from the substantially rectangular LED opening 10c provided in the connector housing 10 and illuminate the charging connector 3 and its periphery.
また、電装品４はインジケーター４ｆも備えており、このインジケーター４ｆは、コネクタ収容部１０に設けた円形のインジケーター用開口部１０ｄから露出し、照射される光の色によって充電状況を確認することができる。 The electrical component 4 also includes an indicator 4f. The indicator 4f is exposed from the circular indicator opening 10d provided in the connector accommodating portion 10, and the charging status can be confirmed by the color of the emitted light. it can.
コネクタ収容部１０は、例えば、ガラス繊維入りのポリプロピレン等の樹脂成形品で成形されている。コネクタ収容部１０は、後述するエラストマー部材と二色成形可能な樹脂製であれば、特に材料は限定されない。コネクタ収容部１０の一端側には、このコネクタ収容部１０を開閉可能に覆うリッド部１１（図１に２点鎖線で示す）が、ヒンジ部１１ａを介して設けられている。 The connector accommodating portion 10 is formed of, for example, a resin molded product such as polypropylene containing glass fiber. The material of the connector housing portion 10 is not particularly limited as long as it is made of a resin that can be two-color molded with an elastomer member described later. A lid portion 11 (shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 1) that covers the connector housing portion 10 in an openable and closable manner is provided on one end side of the connector housing portion 10 via a hinge portion 11a.
そして、このコネクタ収容部１０には、コネクタ収容部１０と、このコネクタ収容部１０の周辺部品であるボディパネル２との間をシールする第１エラストマー部１２が一体成形されている。例えば、この第１エラストマー部１２は、エチレンプロピレンゴムよりなり、コネクタ収容部１０と二色成形されている。コネクタ収容部１０は、図１に示すように、第１エラストマー部１２を当接させるようにしてボディパネル２の収容部用開口部２ａに固定されている。第１エラストマー部１２は、コネクタ収容部１０の外周と収容部用開口部２ａとの間をシールと共に、コネクタ用開口１０ａの周縁と充電コネクタ３との間をシールするように構成されている。さらに、第１エラストマー部１２がリッド部１１側に延出してリッド部１１裏面に当接することで、ボディパネル２とリッド部１１との隙間から侵入した水が内側（充電コネクタ３側）に入らないようにシールする構成となっている。 The connector accommodating portion 10 is integrally formed with a first elastomer portion 12 that seals between the connector accommodating portion 10 and the body panel 2 that is a peripheral component of the connector accommodating portion 10. For example, the first elastomer portion 12 is made of ethylene propylene rubber and is two-color molded with the connector housing portion 10. As shown in FIG. 1, the connector accommodating portion 10 is fixed to the accommodating portion opening 2a of the body panel 2 so that the first elastomer portion 12 is brought into contact with the connector accommodating portion 10. The first elastomer portion 12 is configured to seal between the outer periphery of the connector housing portion 10 and the housing portion opening 2a, and seal between the periphery of the connector opening 10a and the charging connector 3. Further, the first elastomer portion 12 extends toward the lid portion 11 side and abuts on the back surface of the lid portion 11, so that water that has entered through the gap between the body panel 2 and the lid portion 11 enters the inside (the charging connector 3 side). It is configured so that it will not be sealed.
また、コネクタ収容部１０の裏面側には上記電装品４を取り付けるための取付ボス１０ｅが形成されている。 Further, a mounting boss 10e for mounting the electrical component 4 is formed on the back surface side of the connector housing portion 10.
そして、上記電装品４は、コネクタ収容部１０におけるリッド部１１と反対側の面（車体の外側面）に第２エラストマー部１３を挟んだ状態で上記コネクタ収容部１０の取付ボス１０ｅに電装品４の取付孔４ｇを対応させ、図示しないタッピングスクリューにて固定されている。そして、この第２エラストマー部１３は、第１エラストマー部１２と共に、コネクタ収容部１０に一体成形されている。なお、図１では、見やすいように第１エラストマー部１２と第２エラストマー部１３とは異なるハッチングで描いているが、同じ一体の素材でできている。また、図２及び図３では、見やすいようにドットパターンを加えている。具体的には、例えば、第１エラストマー注入ゲート１４からエチレンプロピレンゴムが注入されて外周の第１エラストマー部１２、リッド部１１の裏面当接部の第１エラストマー部１２及び第２エラストマー部１３と共に一体成形される。また、第２エラストマー注入ゲート１５からコネクタ用開口１０ａの周縁の第１エラストマー部１２が一体成形される。なお、コネクタ収容部１０の一次成形時には、リッド部１１の裏面当接部の第１エラストマー部１２が背面側から正面側に抜けるような貫通孔１０ｆがリッド部１１の裏面当接部の第１エラストマー部１２の対応箇所に複数設けられている。 The electrical component 4 is mounted on the mounting boss 10e of the connector accommodating portion 10 with the second elastomer portion 13 sandwiched between the surface of the connector accommodating portion 10 opposite to the lid portion 11 (outer surface of the vehicle body). The mounting holes 4g of 4 are made to correspond to each other and are fixed by a tapping screw (not shown). The second elastomer portion 13 is integrally molded with the connector accommodating portion 10 together with the first elastomer portion 12. Note that, in FIG. 1, the first elastomer portion 12 and the second elastomer portion 13 are depicted by different hatching for easy viewing, but they are made of the same integral material. Further, in FIGS. 2 and 3, a dot pattern is added for easy viewing. Specifically, for example, ethylene propylene rubber is injected from the first elastomer injection gate 14, and the first elastomer part 12 on the outer periphery, the first elastomer part 12 and the second elastomer part 13 on the back surface abutting part of the lid part 11 are It is integrally molded. Further, the first elastomer portion 12 at the periphery of the connector opening 10a is integrally molded from the second elastomer injection gate 15. During the primary molding of the connector accommodating portion 10, the through hole 10f that allows the first elastomer portion 12 of the back surface contact portion of the lid portion 11 to escape from the rear surface side to the front surface side is formed in the first rear surface contact portion of the lid portion 11. A plurality of elastomeric parts 12 are provided at corresponding positions.
本実施形態では、例えば、スイッチ用開口部１０ｂは、第２エラストマー部１３で全体が覆われており、この第２エラストマー部１３によってスイッチ４ａがシールされると共に、第２エラストマー部１３を介してスイッチ４ａが操作されるように構成されている。また、上記ＬＥＤ用開口部１０ｃ及びインジケーター用開口部１０ｄの周辺も第２エラストマー部１３で覆われて防水及び防振されている。 In the present embodiment, for example, the switch opening portion 10b is entirely covered with the second elastomer portion 13, and the switch 4a is sealed by the second elastomer portion 13, and the switch opening portion 10b is provided with the second elastomer portion 13 therebetween. The switch 4a is configured to be operated. The periphery of the LED opening 10c and the indicator opening 10d is also covered with the second elastomer portion 13 to be waterproof and vibration-proof.
以上説明したように、本実施形態では、電装品４がリッド部１１と反対側の面に設けられているので、リッド部１１を開いて差込プラグを充電コネクタ３に接続する際などに電装品４に接触することによる電装品４の破損を防止できる。 As described above, in the present embodiment, since the electrical component 4 is provided on the surface opposite to the lid portion 11, when the lid portion 11 is opened and the plug is connected to the charging connector 3, the electrical component 4 is installed. It is possible to prevent damage to the electrical component 4 due to contact with the component 4.
また、電装品４を柔軟性の高い第２エラストマー部１３を介して樹脂製のコネクタ収容部１０に取り付けているので、車両の走行時などの振動による電装品４の故障を防止することができる。 Further, since the electric component 4 is attached to the resin-made connector accommodating portion 10 via the highly flexible second elastomer portion 13, it is possible to prevent the electric component 4 from being damaged due to vibration such as running of the vehicle. .
さらに、コネクタ収容部１０と周辺部品との間をシールする第１エラストマー部１２と、コネクタ収容部１０と電装品４との間に設ける第２エラストマー部１３とを一体成形できるので、部品点数が減ると共に、製造が容易となる。 Furthermore, since the first elastomer portion 12 that seals between the connector housing portion 10 and the peripheral components and the second elastomer portion 13 that is provided between the connector housing portion 10 and the electrical component 4 can be integrally molded, the number of components can be reduced. It is easy to manufacture with the decrease.
また本実施形態では、第１エラストマー部１２と一体の第２エラストマー部１３がシール機能を有するので、別体のシール部材を設けてシールをする必要がない。 In addition, in the present embodiment, since the second elastomer portion 13 integrated with the first elastomer portion 12 has a sealing function, it is not necessary to provide a separate sealing member for sealing.
また、第２エラストマー部１３がスイッチ４ａの操作部分（いわゆるスイッチラバー部）を構成するので、スイッチ４ａ部の耐久性が高まると共に、スイッチラバー部を別部品で構成する必要がない。 In addition, since the second elastomer portion 13 constitutes the operation portion of the switch 4a (so-called switch rubber portion), the durability of the switch 4a portion is enhanced and it is not necessary to form the switch rubber portion as a separate component.
さらに本実施形態では、充電コネクタ３とコネクタ収容部１０との間、ボディパネル２とコネクタ収容部１０との間及びコネクタ収容部１０とリッド部１１裏面との間が第１エラストマー部１２により、シール機能が確保される。 Further, in the present embodiment, the first elastomer portion 12 is provided between the charging connector 3 and the connector housing portion 10, between the body panel 2 and the connector housing portion 10, and between the connector housing portion 10 and the back surface of the lid portion 11. The sealing function is secured.
したがって、本実施形態に係る車両用充電装置１によると、簡単な構成で、コネクタ収容部１０に設ける電装品４を保護すると共に、コネクタ収容部１０のシール性能を確保することができる。 Therefore, according to the vehicle charging device 1 of the present embodiment, the electrical component 4 provided in the connector housing portion 10 can be protected and the sealing performance of the connector housing portion 10 can be secured with a simple configuration.

すなわち、上記実施形態では、第２エラストマー部１３は、ボディパネル２とコネクタ収容部１０との間及びコネクタ収容部１０とリッド部１１裏面との間をシールする第１エラストマー部１２と連続してコネクタ収容部１０に一体成形されているが、周辺部品としての充電コネクタ３との間をシールする第１エラストマー部１２と連続してコネクタ収容部１０に一体成形されていてもよい。例えば、上記実施形態では、第１エラストマー注入ゲート１４と第２エラストマー注入ゲート１５の２つのゲートを設けたが、１つの注入ゲートのみを設ける場合には、全領域の第１エラストマー部１２及び第２エラストマー部１３が１つのゲートで一体成形される。このため、第２エラストマー部１３がどの部位の第１エラストマー部１２と連続しているかは重要ではない。 That is, in the above embodiment, the second elastomer portion 13 is continuous with the first elastomer portion 12 that seals between the body panel 2 and the connector housing portion 10 and between the connector housing portion 10 and the back surface of the lid portion 11. The connector accommodating portion 10 is integrally molded with the connector accommodating portion 10, but may be integrally molded with the connector accommodating portion 10 continuously with the first elastomer portion 12 that seals the charging connector 3 as a peripheral component. For example, in the above embodiment, the two gates of the first elastomer injection gate 14 and the second elastomer injection gate 15 are provided, but when only one injection gate is provided, the first elastomer portion 12 and the first elastomer portion 12 in the entire region are provided. The two elastomer portions 13 are integrally molded with one gate. Therefore, it is not important which part of the second elastomer portion 13 is continuous with the first elastomer portion 12.
なお、以上の実施形態は、本質的に好ましい例示であって、本発明、その適用物や用途の範囲を制限することを意図するものではない。 Note that the above embodiments are essentially preferable examples, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, its applications, and uses.
